I say 'casually', but mean I was able to do it in training rather than having the atmosphere of a competition to egg me on! |

Been very quiet of late. Lots of reasons but no need to air them here. Popped to the gym this morning did most of what the plan said on the board but felt a bit blah about it all. Lately it has all been technique work and gymnastic stuff and I want to do do some proper lifting. After I did the prescribed stuff I decided to do some back squatting. Worked up in easy sets of three then decided to give a pb a go. Pre, pre covid and injury I got up to 65kg and was carrying significantly more body weight. Today 60kg felt comfortable so I went to see if I could equal my pb and I did. OH gave me some breathing tips so I added on an extra kg (every kg counts π) I wouldn't say I smashed it as it felt heavy but I certainly didn't feel like I was goi g to fail the lift. Maybe I had another 1 or 2 kg in there who knows but I was happy to stop there so 66kg new back squat weight. Still significantly behind everyone else but I'm competing against me not them. We are in tier 3 and awaiting the press conference at 16.00. I'm praying we don't go to tier 4 and closed gyms. Need to keep plodding onwards |
